The Leader of the Labour Group referred to the two Member appointments on the Silent Valley Waste Services Board and sought clarification whether these would also be confirmed at this meeting.  In addition, he pointed out that these were paid appointments and asked when a report could be expected to be received from these Members as no report had not been received for a considerable period of some time.

 

The Leader of the Council advised that the appointees to the Silent Valley Waste Services Board would form part of Item No. 12 ‘Representatives on Outside Bodies’ but confirmed that Councillors M. Cook and B. Summers would be re-appointed to the Board.  With regard to any forthcoming report, the appointed Members would consider this request.

 

The Leader of the Labour Group continued by advising that according to published records there was one Member who had been in receipt of more than one responsibility allowance for over 2 years and requested that further details be submitted to a future meeting to establish if this was correct.

 

The Leader of the Council said that he was genuinely not aware of this case and requested that both he and the Chief Officer Resources be furnished with the details in order that this matter could investigated and discussed further.

 

FURTHER RESOLVED accordingly.
